Texel Rate

The Radeon RX 6900 XT should be much (approximately 192%) better at anisotropic filtering than the GeForce RTX 2060 Super. (explain)

Radeon RX 6900 XT		584000 Mtexels/sec
GeForce RTX 2060 Super		199920 Mtexels/sec
	Difference: 384080 (192%)

Pixel Rate

The Radeon RX 6900 XT is a lot (approximately 148%) faster with regards to AA than the GeForce RTX 2060 Super, and also should be able to handle higher resolutions more effectively. (explain)

Radeon RX 6900 XT		233600 Mpixels/sec
GeForce RTX 2060 Super		94080 Mpixels/sec
	Difference: 139520 (148%)

Please note that the above 'benchmarks' are all just theoretical - the results were calculated based on the card's specifications, and real-world performance may (and probably will) vary at least a bit.

Specifications

Memory Bandwidth: Bandwidth is the largest amount of information (counted in megabytes per second) that can be transferred past the external memory interface in one second. It is calculated by multiplying the bus width by its memory clock speed. If it uses DDR type RAM, it should be multiplied by 2 once again. If it uses DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the memory bandwidth, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with AA, HDR and higher screen resolutions.

Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum amount of texture map elements (texels) that are processed in one second. This figure is worked out by multiplying the total amount of texture units of the card by the core clock speed of the chip. The better this number, the better the video card will be at handling texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied per second.

Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the most pixels the graphics card could possibly write to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the amount of Render Output Units by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - sometimes also referred to as Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel output rate also depends on lots of other factors, especially the memory bandwidth of the card - the lower the bandwidth is, the lower the ability to get to the maximum fill rate.
